Still move 7mo onto back when sleeping

So paranoid that something might happen.

If she naps on her front during the day I am fine but put her back on her back half a dozen times during the night even though she is a good roller and sleeps right through.

I'm actually starting to disturb her now, am I being careful or neurotic?

Neurotic Grin once they're good rollers, not overdressed and the cot is clear of anything dangerous the risk is massively reduced, especially as your DD is over 6 months.

DS started to sleep on his front just before 6 months and slept better for it (usually), so I left him.

Neurotic Grin if she can move herself from front to back easily then she will be fine to sleep on her front. I did the same as you though and the first time I decided to leave her and not roll her back I was so worried I didn't sleep.

Well not neurotic exacty .....but Step Away From That Baby and thank your lucky stars you've got one who sleeps thru. My DD1 never ever slept on her back once she could roll. She clearly hated it all along and we were all much happier when I left her to it. You could get a breathing sensor if you're going to be awake worrying!
